Started in the middle and I swept to the corners
By the time I got home, the house was filled with foreigners
I’m just a nomad, Roaming cell phone ad
Does the homeless guys ghost gotta sit and beg for mourners

Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I’m losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach

I guess I grew weary of watching my backwoods
Turned around, sat down, wondered if I could
Be riding the streamline, into the mainline
Tell me, how does the tuna wind up in the canned goods… ?

Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I’m losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach

If your mind is limber, then I think you will see
If you’re mining for lumber, then it’s coal you seek
Way back there, at the roots of my hair
There wasn’t a diamond, just a living tree

Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I’m losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach

Think back to the days that were brooding and mean
Bottled thoughts are best when they’re smashed to smithereens
On the bow of the launch of this, ship called consciousness
When a thought’s caught in motion, they call it a stream

Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I’m losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach

The ocean… The ocean… The ocean… The ocean…
The ocean… The ocean… The ocean… The ocean…
